Great shorts!,

December 9, 2013

By: Romero

from WISCONSIN

"If you are looking for an extremely comfortable and durable pair of shorts that are flexible enough to go fishing, shopping, work around the house and then go to your local watering hole, then consider these great looking shorts.

I bought both colors and basically traveled through Spain this summer in them.

"First I purchased the khaki color. I love these shorts. You cannot go wrong. They are tough, wash well, fit well, and there are pockets galore. I love the phone pocket on the side. I highly recommend you get a pair. You'll be back for more!"

Great Shorts,

July 16, 2013

By: mrbee

from UK

"Look and feel very comfortable. Pleased to have bought size down as the waist is generous - thanks for tip in the size guide!"

"I ordered this for my husband. He is not easy to please but he liked these so much he asked me to order more. Why? The length is perfect. He is 6'4" and the longer length is great. Additionally the lighter weight fabric is good for warm weather."

Good casual shorts,

June 7, 2013

By: James46

from Ann Arbor

"These are good shorts for summer walking, hiking or doing stuff around the house. The material as sturdy, Khaki color is good, fit is very good and finish/construction is very good.Lots of pockets for things you need to carry."

"I need a more trim short. These are probably okay for most guys, the style is nice, the material above average. Just a bit baggy in the seat and legs."

Hoback Shorts,

October 5, 2012

By: 6599aaa

from Mukilteo,WA

"This is the second pair of Hoback shorts that I have purchased from Orvis. The shorts are really comfortable. I like the side cell phone pocket and deep right front side pocket as well. They look good and stitching seems pretty strong. I like wearing a pair of shorts like these shorts with no buttons or velcro attached to the pockets."

Great Shorts,

July 10, 2012

By: MechE

from Fort Wayne, IN

"These shorts are just the right length (I'm 5' 8'') and just the right weight. They're very comfortable, fit well, and I like the large watch pocket at the top of the right front pocket and the cell phone pocket on the right thigh. I have these shorts in both khaki and gray, and I love them both."

Nice Shorts!,

June 28, 2012

By: LandCruiser2

from Austin, TX

"Ordered one pair in khaki and liked them enough to order another pair in khaki and 2 pair in charcoal. They look great, fit well and laundry okay. One note about Orvis Customer Service - When I received my second order the charcoal shorts were marked 32 but fit like 34s, I called Michelle in Customer Service and she coordinated with shipping and sent me two pair of charcoal shorts that fit perfectly. Great customer service!"

Very Nice Shorts,

June 20, 2011

By: Bargie

from Wake Forest, NC

"These shorts have a nice, distict style to them and a good fit. They' also feel better made than most shorts you'd find in a Dept. Store. Overpriced, but more affordable with a $25 off coupon."
